Description

Fluid-operated single-freedom and flexible bending joint
Technical field:
The present invention relates to a kind of fluid-operated single-freedom and flexible bending joint, this joint is the single-degree-of-freedom bending, have the advantages that flexibility is good, be active in one's movements, all kinds of bending joints that can be used as manipulator, robot or disabled person's artificial limb belong to applied technical fields such as manipulator, robot or disabled person's artificial limb.
Background technology:
Before the present invention makes, in prior art, for bending joint: be power generally, adopt various frame for movements, or liquid gas pressure cylinder and motor with all kinds of motors or liquid gas pressure, or with their executive component that is combined as; Each mode all is rigid structures, complex structure, and volume is bigger, the manufacturing cost height.Also has the bending joint that adopts logical compressed-air actuated rubber wall (but the big round rubber pipe of a kind of axial deformation), since rubber wall axially, radially all will expand, but being radially expanded is the waste energy, and the flexural deformation to rubber wall can't obtain than mathematical models, therefore dynamically the control effect is bad, and action is sensitive inadequately.
Summary of the invention:
The objective of the invention is to overcome above-mentioned weak point, flexible joint of the present invention drives with fluid, and with the stressed power that is expanded to of elastomeric bellow, the angle of bend in joint is relevant with the fluid pressure of elastomeric bellow inner chamber; Flexible members such as spring, elastic strip or torsion spring are drawn in employing, and by the effect of flexible member, the joint is replied and stretched; Overcome the effect of flexible member, arthrogryposis also grasps article, and externally active force increases with the fluid pressure of elastomeric bellow inner chamber; Can change the flexible member of variety classes or rigidity according to instructions for use, obtain different quiet, dynamic property.The variation sensitivity of the distortion fluid pressure of joint ripple shell requires fluid flow little, and is flexibly crooked; It is little to have dutycycle, and power/quality is than little, and little characteristics consume energy; Easily set up simultaneously the relation of arthrogryposis angle and fluid pressure, the control model is simple, dynamically the control accuracy height.
Main solution of the present invention is achieved in that
First kind of scheme is: elastomeric bellow 6 is clamped on the bayonet socket of headstock 3a and tailstock 8a by clip 5, and fluid enters the inner chamber of elastomeric bellow 6 by flexible pipe 10 and joint 11, and joint 11 is spun on the tailstock 8a, and there are sealing ring 9 sealings the centre; The two ends of plate hinge 7 are fixed on headstock 3a and the tailstock 8a by screw 4, draw spring 13 two ends to be hooked in two hook axle 12 holes, and two hook axles 12 cooperate with the interporal lacuna of headstock 3a and tailstock 8a respectively, and use nut check; Fingerstall 1 is spun on the headstock 3a, and the thickness of adjusting pad 2 can be regulated the rotatable phase of fingerstall 1; The screw thread of headstock 3a and tailstock 8a is identical, and fingerstall 1 also is spun on tailstock 8a by adjusting pad 2.
Second kind of scheme is: need not draw spring 13, and pass two hook axles 12 with elastic strip 16, and the mode that elastic strip 16 two ends are tightened by locking plate 17 again, all the other structures are with first kind of scheme.
The third scheme is: adopt torsion spring 18 to be installed on the bearing pin of plate hinge 7 mode of restraining plate hinge 7 bendings; Headstock 3a with holes in first kind of scheme and tailstock 8a are replaced with atresia headstock 3b and atresia tailstock 8b, and without hook axle 12, draw parts such as spring 13, elastic strip 16, locking plate 17, all the other structures are with first kind of scheme.
Compared with the prior art the present invention has the following advantages:
It is flexible back bone that the fluid-operated single-freedom and flexible bending joint of the present invention adopts the plate hinge, and elastomeric bellow is subjected to expand as muscular motivation after the fluid pressure action, and the angle of bend in joint is relevant with the fluid pressure of elastomeric bellow inner chamber; Overcome the effect of flexible member, arthrogryposis also grasps article, and externally active force increases with the fluid pressure of elastomeric bellow inner chamber; By the effect of flexible member, the joint is replied and is stretched; Can change the flexible member of variety classes and rigidity according to instructions for use, obtain different quiet, dynamic property.The variation sensitivity of the distortion fluid pressure of joint ripple shell requires fluid flow little, and is flexibly crooked; Have dutycycle little (ratio of the fluid space that the elastomeric bellow bending takies when stretching), power/quality is than little, and little characteristics consume energy; Easily set up simultaneously the relation of flexural deformation angle and fluid pressure, the control model is simple, dynamically the control accuracy height.
